Well, you will just have to accept that economic activity, the stuff that allows you to live your life the way you want (I imagine you have a car, maybe even more than one, several tvs, a house perhaps with central heating, doing groceries in supermarkets with plastic around the food, etc. etc.), leads to the generation of waste. Is that caused by “government”? Or is it in the end *your own fault*? It’s the latter, Katie. Your complaints about the government causing waste that then needs to be cleaned is nothing but a complaint about your own behaviour.

None of the information contradicts, the only thing that is contradictory you! Here are some more links:

There is an open comment period to EPA regarding the question whether or not airplane emissions effect air quality and if they should be regulated. Currently there is no regulation. Including no regulation on weather modification activities. From the EPA website:

“Greenhouse Gas Determinations: Emissions from Aircraft Cause or Contribute to Air Pollution that May Reasonably Be Anticipated to Endanger Public Health and Welfare”

Over half (closer to 3/4) of all EPA superfund sites have been created with US tax dollars by the US government and their private contractors. US tax dollars are then used to clean up the mess by hiring private US contractors to do it. Now there is an investigation into the abuse if the money running through sieve. The investigation will be cut short and never reach it’s full potential. Taxpayer dollars are being used to modify the weather in a negative way, an enormous amount of tax money is being spent on scientists to study it and our tax dollars will be used again in the sieve to clean it up in the name of global warming.

I have given you plenty of proof you are just mental and don’t want to listen or learn anything new. Instead, you want to play games and avoid the subject.

All you have is to say you don’t have to? Really?

If we don’t consider your claim to be sufficiently supported by the evidence, then yes.

You think the evidence presented at geoengineeringwatch.org for the existence of an ongoing secret, nefarious program to modify global climate, being conducted by shadowy forces, is strong enough that we are obligated to accept it if we can’t prove it doesn’t exist. Your interlocutors here, however, see many features common to all conspiracy theories on display at that site, and don’t consider the available evidence strong enough to support the conspiracy claim.

The Nobel prize-winning physicist Richard Feynman said “Science is a way of trying not to fool yourself. The first rule is you must not fool yourself, and you are the easiest person to fool”. If you’re relying on the information at geoengineeringwatch.org, then you aren’t trying hard enough not to fool yourself. It’s not up to us to convince you of that, it’s up to you to convince us you aren’t.

Why can’t you answer a basic question in regards to current technology in weather modification and where it is used?

Once again I was waiting for the evidence for that “fact”, and once again I was disappointed to see Katie not provide any such evidence.

Yes, we have the capability to alter *weather* patterns. We are doing so as a rather uncontrollable side-product of our own economic activity, which is still primarily based on energy from fossil fuels. The associated release of GHGs is what is causing global warming, not a deliberate attempt of governments to use taxpayer money to cause global warming. If it were, it would be first example in history that all governments of the world agree to do something, and maintain this vast conspiracy for many decades across continuously changing people in charge.

But let’s assume for a moment that this is all true. What is the benefit for the people in the government? They are taxpayers themselves, and in most countries they are only in charge for a relatively short period of their life. The whole conspiracy is of little to no benefit to them, and may even be detrimental!
